TODAY IN CLASS
More discussion of Chapter Two; short discussion of Goldstein's book questions; quiz over Chapter Two.
FOR MONDAY
Do the one-page hand-out set of Chapter Three questions. (One person did these in the 5-7 minutes after turning in the test; they are not complicated.) But more important, read and understand Chapter Three well enough to benefit from some siginficant discussion of implications--not "plot"--on Monday.
Also, if you want to get a headstart on an interesting article, read this as well:

As you've been told, the final will cover ONLY 1984. It will be mostly scantron, with one or two written responses. The entire test cannot take more than 55 minutes.
REMEMBER
4th period--your final exam is on Tuesday (and 4th period starts at 10:05)
2nd period--your final exam is on Wednesday (2nd period starts at 10:40).

Shortened Schedule--Math EOC Testing
TODAY IN CLASS
We finished talking about some key Chapter One issues generated by the quiz, and worked with the Chapter Two study guide questions. I also collected the questions on Goldstein's book from absent students and from people who were turning work in for reduced late credit.
FOR TOMORROW
We will discuss a few more overall Chapter Two concepts, and some (not all by any means) of the questions on Goldstein's book. During the last 20 minutes of class, there will be a Chapter Two quiz.
For Monday
You need to be finished with Chapter Three (which you should have started, but it's fairly short, so no big deal if you have not. In 4th period, we will have Monday ONLY to discuss Chapter Three (mainly its implications--the text should stand on its own, and you'll receive study guide questions tomorrow--which I'm sorry to say I just forgot to distribute today).

Closer . . .
TODAY IN CLASS
"Winston's Bedtime Reading" questions were collected. They are worth 35 possible points (daily work). Tomorrow I'll accept late papers for reduced credit. Friday and beyond? No credit.
I returned the Chapter One quizzes and we discussed implications of some of the questions--perhaps a few more tomorrow.
FOR TOMORROW
Be reading Chapter Three!! Tomorrow's discussion will involve the homework questions and some other aspects of Chapter Two, and there will be a short quiz over Two at the start of class on Friday. Then we turn to Three--so you really need to have that finished for Friday.
